Annex A (informative) - Inter laboratory test
        on the present test method
Annex B (informative) - Weight change test
Annex ZA (informative) - Relationship between this
         European Standard and the Essential
         Requirements of EU Directive 89/686/EEC

This European Standard specifies the test method for the determination of the resistance of protective glove materials to degradation by dangerous chemicals with continuous contact.NOTEAnnex A gives information on interlaboratory test results on this method.Other tests used to evaluate chemical resistance such as permeation resistance and penetration resistance may not provide sufficient information on the physical property changes affecting a glove during exposure to a chemical. It is necessary that the outside surface of the glove be exposed to the chemical.
